Building a Strategic Marketing Plan: Market Segmentation + Identifying a Target Market

whitePaper | February 1, 2023

The information you need to target your ideal accounts efficiently is scattered across your systems and processes (or just plain hidden, such as buyer intent). As a result of the broken and incomplete data, your sales and marketing teams have account blindness. They have no choice but to make hunch-based decisions.

In a rush to accelerate the delivery of “account-based experiences” (ABX), the platforms that support it have become a critical bottleneck, creating yet another siloed system that adds to the complexity and undermines the outcomes it is intended to improve.
